INDIVIDUAL GIFTS
Through your donation to Raritan Valley Habitat for Humanity, you
can help give a local family the priceless gift of a home. Any size
gift will be greatly appreciated and will help us work toward our
goal of building simple, decent homes for families in need.
How to donate
There are several ways to make your tax-deductible contribution.
Give through your workplace
We are an affiliated agency of the Somerset County United Way.
Through your employer, you may be able to donate through payroll
deductions. Please be sure to specify Raritan Valley Habitat for
Humanity as the recipient. (Our United Way of Tri-State payee number
is 018430.)
If you want to make your contribution go even farther, ask if your
company has a matching gift program for charitable donations. Get a
matching gift form from your personnel office, fill it out, and
include it with your contribution.
